I kinda wonder if it was me in a past life.
Well, given the chance of them dying together like that (unless suicide), and given funerary custom across the world - at a guess, realistically, at least one of them wasn't there voluntarily.Originally Posted by theimp98

like there first idea why they are together. Based on they said the arrows were
does not make sense. Sounds to me more like someone trying to get away.
Yes and no. Dolni Vestonice is near the town of Brno, the capital of Moravia in the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic is in Central, not Eastern Europe (in fact the middle of Europe is in the Czech Republic). Central Europe was previously (and still sometimes, mainly by historians) called Middle Europe.Originally Posted by theimp98
it was a site in eastern europe, where they found, some early hunter site, and three people buried strange? i dont remember what country. dont know much about it accept that part.
Good point on the arrow-head wasting. Maybe some religious signifcance (hey, scary all powerful divine things, we offer you these humans, and we're throwing in a pair of hi-tech arrow heads)? Or maybe an appeal of sorts (ok, we had to kill you for (blah) reason, but we're letting you take this shiny, valuable arrow head to the underworld, so please don't come back to haunt us)?Originally Posted by theimp98
Oh i admit that one of them may not have been of there own free choice. But with a arrow in the back and one in the side? i guess if the one in the side was shot in heart.still why waste a arrow back then. still unless the they were placed that way, then were they still alive when they buried them? granted we may never know. just
kinda fun to think about. since they said its the first time they found people hugging.

Given that this find is significantly later than the DV find, it's possible that they were both being punished (again criminal sacrifice come in pagan cultures) for contravening sexual taboos (again given prominent theories on the DV find).
